Personal Property Schedules Distributed
The Township Assessors will be distributinp the 1970 personal prop¬ erty schedules to all persons within their respective town-ihips.
Every taxpayer is required to fill out the personal property schedule. The exemption for one car and household furniture is not automatic. A request for exemption must be filed. On the reverse side of Page One you will find an "Exemption Declaration". This must be com¬ pleted to prevent being taxed csi these items. Each household is eligi¬ ble for an exemption on one (1) car used for pleasure purposes and household furniture. You may choose which car you want exempted if you have more than one. No truck of any type is eligible for exemption.
Failure to receive a schedule does not relieve any property from an assessment, as schedules may be obtained from the assessor. Failure to file or a refusal to sign a per¬ sonal property schedule gives the assessor the right to apply a 50% penalty to the assessment as made by him; therefore, make certain you file a schedtde and that both sides of Page one are signed.
